Re: Stopping Compensation

They can cut you off but they are supposed to send a form explaining why. However, there are no penalties if they fail to do so. They cannot cut you off in this manner after a magistrate has made a favorable decision granting you benefits. The solution is to file a petition (Form 104A). You should do this with an experienced workers' compensation attorney. I have been specializing in this area in the Wayne, Oakland and Macomb counties for close to 30 years and am a former adjunct member of the Workers' Compensation Appeal Board. Feel free to give me a call. William S. Stern
